That Thing You Do! Customer Reviews (4 - 6 of 36 Reviews)

Great Young Cast and Catchy Tunes!
Tom Hanks directorial debut is a work of art. He has managed to bring together a cast of brilliant up and coming actors to fill the shoes of fictional band the One-Ders (wonders).
Fine acting and brilliant tunes put this into my top films of all time. I recommend it to anyone in a band. I've shown this to many mates in bands and they all love it.
The songs are both catchy (try not humming 'That Thing You Do' for days after) and nostalgic of the era.
This is a nice clean film that can be watched and enjoyed time and again. Great film.

Favorite Film of All Time
This is my favorite film of all time. OK so I might be a little shallow, but the perfect combination of the music, the capturing of post-Beatle, pre-heated up Vietnam War America is so entertaining it is just well....................my favorite movie.

The opening scene along with the "Ray Conniff-style" singers doing a song titled, "Loving You Lots and Lots" shows an incredibly restored film of Erie, PA which could have been Everytown, USA at the time. When people would like to know what my hometown of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio looked like in the sixties I point them to this film.

Just a great fun film and yes I was in a band which could have been called the Noneders (No needers? We were NO hit wonders).

Almost biographical - good, clean movie
I had to research the Internet to find out that this was a fictitious band. The movie is well made and is biographical in nature. Good, clean fun with a heart-warming ending.
